What does the A-series have to offer? 0-60 mph time in 20 seconds (stock) or 0-60 in 17 seconds (heavily modded).

Stock KA24 will do 14 to 15 seconds 1/4 mile time in a B210. That's your best bang for the buck, no cutting required. If you use the right transmission it bolts in with stock B210 driveshaft.

Thank you for the tips. The B210 will be moved to my house this weekend so I will measure everything. I figured that the dual SU setup wouldn't fit but I've never seen SUs up close so I didn't know how large they were.

As for cutting, I prefer not to cut my firewall. Eventually I will either move the master under the dash or I will spend the extra cash for the universal wilwood pedal box and masters.

Eventually I may choose to do a swap, but I really want to spend some time figuring out what the a-series has to offer. I'm starting with a decent setup. My B210 has an A15 with H89 head. I have a modest goal of running 5-9psi of boost from a screw supercharger through it, but that is a long way off.

For now I just need to decide on a carb setup because the stock hitachi is completely shot. It looks like the most viable options are either a single DCOE or a 32/36 DGV. I know the DGV will hold me back once I start building so I was looking for a better alternative using SUs. Thanks for all of your input. One day I hope to have the money and time to fit a CA18DET in the B210 and move the A15 setup into a 1200, but I have to find a 1200 first :P

One of my reserve engines has them, they stick out a fair amount and their aircleaner is a long thing. With a cutting torch anything can be made to fit.

The question is how badly do you want it? The difference between the stock Hitachi carb and stock dual su carbs was only a few horsepower.

The A series engine is a tiny thing, but a cheap and easy solution for more power is to just bolt in a larger engine& transmission. A driveline shop will splice driveshafts for you. They usually charge me $100 (only labor as long as you have a driveshaft end to fit the transmission)for that( they generally come free with the tranny).

I do not think they will fit; on my 1200 The front most of the brake reservoir need to be a remote type to clear the velocity stack. Measure the depth of the booster to the firewall, the rear most carb on the GX set up is roughly between cylinder 3 and 4. I no longer have a GX set up but one of us could measure how far from the cylinder head it sticks out.

I'm worndering if anyone knows if dual SUs on a GX or similar manifold will fit on a US spec B210? The car is left hand drive and has a brake booster. I know that dual DCOEs will not fit, but I've never compared the setups side by side to see the difference in size.

I will eventually look into a remote mount for the master cyl to clean up the engine bay, but that will be close to the end of my build process.
